The first details onimminent (but not too much) multiplayer version of Cyberpunk 2077 would have already been discovered by some dataminers. The information disseminated relates to some files already present in the PC installation, which unequivocally demonstrate that these are not mere indiscretions.
The game's executable files so far contain two distinct modes of Multiplayer. The first called Heists (Strokes) and a second (at the moment) that would seem a classic deathmatch. Hits mode seems to work more like standard single player missions, with some related character editing features. Here are some of the files discovered:
- MP.Heist.DebugMessageNameChanged
- MP.Heist.MessagePlayerReady
- MP.Heist.SetPlayerCharacterClass
- ++% s joined the robbery
- -% s left the robbery
- Character.Cpo_Muppet_Solo
- Character.Cpo_Muppet_Assassin
- Character.Cpo_Muppet_Netrunner
- Character.Cpo_Muppet_Techie
- cpo_heist_started
- Character.Cpo_Muppet_Default
- Character.Cpo_Default_Player
Already from these it could be understood that multiplayer is focused on a more rigorous character class selection system than the standard version.
As for the deathmatch mode, here are some of the strings identified:
- ++% s has joined the game
- >>% s killed% s
- You sent yourself straight to hell! Please don't come back
- Wow! You killed yourself ... Bravo.
- Your bullet was stronger than your self-esteem
- Your blow destroyed your body and soul. Duh!
- You sent% s straight to hell!
- Wow! You killed% s without compassion
- Your bullet was stronger than% s's head
- Your shot destroyed% s's body and soul
- % s sent you straight to the devil!
- Wow! % s killed you without compassion
- % S's bullet was stronger than your head
- % S's hit destroyed your body and soul
However, probably the most consistent leak among the Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer details identified, concerns the type of connection that the game would use. It would seem in fact that the title is relying on P2P connections without having dedicated servers (therefore a system that entrusts host authorities in peer-to-peer mode.) Technicalities aside, however, it is certain that the MP version of the CD Projekt RED title will come out, unlike its older brother, only when it is really ready, and with all likelihood after the major patch series expected for the next few weeks.
